Which Izzy's legend defines your lunch mood? 🤔

We’ve crafted two massive flavor profiles, both served with a golden-crisp potato pancake. Tag a friend who needs to make this difficult decision! 👇

🥇 The Front Runner: Our Goetta Reuben. A masterclass in Cincinnati tradition. We stack Glier's Goetta with our signature corned beef, sauerkraut, 1000 island, and melted Swiss on a perfectly toasted telera roll.

🔥 The Challenger: The Izzy's Mex. For those craving a kick. Corned beef, jalapeños, sliced onions, chipotle sauce, and melted Swiss on toasted rye. It’s a heat-and-sweet powerhouse.

Two legends. One choice. Are you 🥇 or 🔥? Let us know! 👇

And what a first lunch it was! Right here at Izzy’s 🔥

The Secret to the Crunch 🥔

A secret behind the World’s Best Potato Pancakes is finally OUT! 🤫

Ever wonder how we get that legendary, golden, unmatched crunch on our iconic Izzy's potato pancakes? The culinary secret we’ve used is Restaurant Grade Beef Tallow.

For the first time ever, we are letting you take the magic home. We’ve jarred up our premium beef tallow so you can get that perfect, old-school crisp on your own cooking, frying, and backyard burgers. (It even doubles as an incredible all-natural moisturizer!)

📍 EXCLUSIVE DROP: These 16oz jars are available ONLY at our Florence location for $11.99.
Quantities are strictly limited, so grab yours next time you stop in for a Reuben!

🍋✨ Escape to the Keys, One Bite at a Time!

Ready for the weekend? We’ve got the perfect antidote: a slice of pure, refreshing sunshine. ☀️

Get our Real Florida Key Lime Pie, and we’ve perfected every single layer just for you.

We start with a perfectly buttery, crumbly graham cracker crust, filled to the brim with our signature tangy Key Lime filling. But this isn't just any filling - we use real Florida Key Limes for that authentic, unmistakable zesty punch. 🍋

To finish this masterpiece, we top it with a cloud of airy whipped topping and a generous sprinkle of sweet, shaved coconut for the ultimate tropical finish.

Just take a look at this beauty.

It’s creamy, it’s tart, it’s refreshing, and it’s waiting for you.

This is the dessert you deserve this week. Come grab a slice before it’s gone! 🏃‍♀️💨

While everyone else chases the ‘adults-only’ crowd, we’re cornering a much bigger market: exhausted parents who just want to eat a good meal without getting judged.

We see the screaming-kid niche… and we’re leaning all the way in.

This is your sign. Bring the whole circus. We’ve got high chairs, extra napkins, and zero judgment. 🔥🥪👶
